Songs of Thunder - I

I don't know
What to make of these songs
That you sing in the dark
Loud noises and words
I don't understand
A language unheard of before
Or heard but never understood
Tell me at least
For who are these songs for
You sing and sing
Without any meaning

I don't know
What to make of your songs of thunder
But when you sing...
Everything listens.

Oh I loved the way you closed. Beautiful.

I don't know
What to make of your songs of thunder
But when you sing...
Everything listens...

God bless you.

@ Gazal - Thank you.

I have always been fascinated by lightening and thunder. As a kid, i used to turn off all the lights and sit by the window when the storms came knocking. I still do.
